Ben Affleck's early acting days caught our attention when the American Spirit Brand was being scrutinized for using questionable marketing language. We follow with news that could affect the availability of popular tobacco products like flavored cigars, since banning sales of flavored smoking products seems to be trending in some localities. The argument is, flavored tobacco products attract younger consumers and are a lure which entices them to smoke. Flavored tobacco products seem to be popular with younger consumers and a possible ban could be just the thing to encourage less political apathy among younger consumers. In fact, it may be time for all smokers who enjoy puffing on something with more of a taste to get a little political by writing state and local officials. Some form of activism is needed if consumers want to continue having the freedom to buy locally at Convenience Stores. Banning flavored tobacco products could seriously affect the bottom line of grocers across the board. The way consumers pay is another matter facing legislative challenges.  Interchange fees, which are the fees charged to merchants by the card issuing bank, are also a matter of question. During the Trump Rally at Aero Mod, President Trump promised that for every new piece of legislation, he would repeal 2 Obama bills. That means that new legislation from the Trump Administration could affect charges for better or for worse. We will just have to wait and see how this plays out.  That's all. Kudos...
